The Story of the Persecution of Mr. Jia Guanglin

Arrest and Detention

Mr. Jia Guanglin is a Falun Gong practitioner who has been imprisoned at the Yuanbaoshan Detention Centre since January 13th, 2013. After 3 months of persecution instigated by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), he is in extremely poor health.

At around 10 a.m. on January 16th, Jia Guanglin was taken to court in Yuanbaoshan District, Chifeng City. During the court session, the public security office, procuratorate and judiciary conspired to sentence Mr. Jia for crimes he didn't commit. They falsified evidence of crimes to frame him. The hearing ended after one hour and he was told to wait two weeks for the decision. He was informed of the possibility of a 3-5 year sentence.

Mr. Jia became healthy and disease-free after he started practising Falun Gong. However, because of the abuse he has endured for the past several months, he experienced a relapse of his old diseases. His family is very worried about his life and safety. We call for assistance from all kind and just people to help set Mr. Jia free.

Rescued by Falun Gong

Mr. Jia Guanglin, 60 years old, is from Jianchangying village, Yuanbaoshan District, Chifeng City. Before he practised Falun Gong, he had severe tracheitis and emphysema. He had to take medicine every day and get injections every month. Many people died from these same diseases, but Mr. Jia became healthy after taking up Falun Gong.

Mr. Jia started practising Falun Gong in 1996 and has faithfully followed the principles of Falun Gong. He is a well-known as a good person in his village. Before learning Falun Gong, he was an alcoholic who was rude, bitter and drunk all the time. He frequently argued loudly with his wife at their home, and the family almost split up. When he obtained Falun Gong, he quit drinking and his family life became harmonious. Mr. Jia got along well with his neighbours and always helped others whenever he could without expecting payment. He became such a good person, however, he was persecuted so severely that he has has become extremely weak and cannot walk.

Extortion Attempts by Police

Cui Lixin, the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau at Yuanbaoshan District, and Wang Heran and Feng Xiaohu from the National Security Team are the three main culprits involved in the persecution of Mr. Jia Guanglin. Zhang Haiyan, at the Detention Centre, ordered the abuse which led to Mr. Jia’s severe health problems. He was not only tortured, body and mind, but in addition Mr. Jia's son was blackmailed. The authorities told his son, “Your father asked that you bring money to pay some fines for him.” When they heard that he didn’t have any money, they then told Mr. Jia's son that they wouldn’t let his father go even if he did bring the money.

After Mr. Jia was arrested, he did not receive any of the money sent by his family. The family is trying to find out what happened to the money.
